According to Scotty, Hedeki has the best collection that he is aware of!

Whoa. Did he actually get the plumber's neck chopped off of his NP2?

[QuigleyDU]

This one is kinda ugly..

[BigtimeHC]

With all the great putting coaches out there, you'd think he'd eventually figure it out. Don't think the wand is the problem.

 

Agree x100 @QuigleyDU that thing is not the prettiest

Looks like the old Santa Fe 2 neck.

Man.  This one’s after my own heart !

Dig it sans the alignment choice. This thing screams “you can’t buy me off the shelf”

He just hits it bettter than most.  Which makes him appear to putt “ bad”.  Because he misses more good birdie looks.  He’s much better than average. And contrary to popular belief a mallet won’t do a thing .  You can’t make them all.      
 

if anything I’d like to see him be more aggressive sometimes.  He sometimes appears tentative on 10-12 footers.  Read a hair less break .  But that’s also risking 3 putts.

Most OEMS make a putter exactly like this.  What is the big deal?

It says 'scotty cameron' in extremely small stamping. Thats 99.87% of why it's good.

Hideki is well aware of the Cameron lure and literally gets a FREE Tour Scotty at every event..  I am not joking either.

Something you, me and probably everyone on here would gladly take advantage of too!

Totally not true about aFree Tour Scotty at every event, though he does look at putters at every event he’s at.

How does that typically work at a tour event? Is it hard for a pro to just grab a putter that he likes and keep it?

Totally depends on the Pro. Hideki could take 5 a week if he wanted but he doesn’t. 
 

A Pro who has a history of using/playing a Cameron Could take one but if it doesn’t go into play after a couple of events the Rep might ask for it back, again depends on who the player is. 
 

If it’s a player under contract with another OEM, he definitely will be asked to give it back if he doesn’t put into play

I think most of us realize they aren’t magical or groundbreaking. And they sure enough get a lot hate here. Like with anything else, cars, watches etc. People tend to have an affinity for certain brands.
